This was fine. I was hoping for more than fine, though. The premise of this novel sounds fantastic, best friends who fake date to save the Christmas tree farm sounded like the perfect holiday read, but it felt kind of meh. I didn't really feel the chemistry between the two main characters, the plot was all over the place and the romance didn't feel convincing in any stage of their relationship. I especially hate the third-act conflict because it made no sense and I feel like the author put it there just so she can check the box on the list of elements that the romance novel should have. Yes, it was cozy and certain scenes did make me smile, the potential is definitely there, but damn, was I disappointed by this one.
